Greece has impossibly blue seas, gorgeous beaches, blue-domed Greek Orthodox churches, picturesque villages, and famous historical sites. Visitors have been lured to this ancient civilization for thousands of years and few cities rival Athens when it comes to historical importance. Travel to Athens is a must for history and archeology buffs, but the city's hillsides and picturesque vistas will be equally appreciated by nature lovers. Greece is the ultimate Mediterranean getaway.

Stay tuned for details about our virtual Gift Gathering effort – “Race of the Saints”!

First Graders Learn How Birds Get Food

This week, 1st graders learned about how different birds use their beaks to get food. Students

used warbler beaks (straws) and duck beaks (cups) to collect food. Students learned that warbler

beaks are like tweezers and are able to pick food out of rocks, and duck beaks are good for

scooping lots of food.
